Material Handling Capability

"SLASHBUSTER"® models with a third boom come with an integrated material handler, allowing you to pick up anything the teeth can grip. This capability dramatically expands the attachment's versatility beyond just cutting brush.

Add our optional tilt mount for dexterity that mimics the human arm (boom), wrist (tilt mount), hand (third boom) and fingers (material handler).
